  • Kubuntu, once setup, is a very reliable system. I use it to stream VR games.

    Remove the Default from snaps and change it to flatpak, fairly quick and painless to put flatpak on, remember flatseal as well to modify permissions. Then only use snaps if there is no flatpak version and you don’t want it to have full access to the system. After a couple issues with Lutris and one weird issue that resolved itself with an update the GF has bothered me less with linux than windows. Just ensure everything is setup before you leave them the pc, including an auto back up routine.


  • Not exactly the same, but there is not a great handle on auto pay either. I pay a sub for the gf on ESO, the CC they have on file expired at least 1 CC cycle ago and they are still happily taking the money for her sub, on one hand WTAF??? on the other hand since she plays it all the time I just let it slide, when I get my next renewed CC I will ask my bank why they are allowing an expired card to still function. So far as my physical cards I always cut the mag strip in half and then several pieces, and the chip once in half.




  • and it dropped me into a Windows recovery prompt

    I discovered this bloody annoyance in XP I believe, or maybe was 98. The way I used to get rid of it was to start the install of whatever OS, format the drive in one large partition, reboot, then install whatever OS I was going to install and partition accordingly. Took a few extra minutes but well worth it vs doing the whole install and remove files later/tell current OS to ignore other files.

    I’m a “Loonixtard” now, according to someone that jumped on my live lol. I don’t talk about linux, unless someone asks, I just have some tags that state I’m on linux
